Bad webcomics

[liam dees]

I believe what it's specifically mocking is that democrats talk a lot about donald trump ruining everything, but have done basically nothing to stop that happening (because a: it's a load of hyperbolic horseshit and b: they don't have power to do anything, anyways)

This doesn't change the fact that 'Jennie Breeden' shouldn't be given scissors provisions if this is her level of logic, but there are two coherent, if irreconcilable, stances she's trying to merge here.

Ah. So the reason the comic was made was to scold Democrats for not being woke enough and destroying America more that they already have. What an insightful, scathing condemnation of both sides.

So, where's the Democrat belief of the strawman? What is the strawman? What is the fucking point nigga?

You missed it because your brain isn't broken enough. The right-wing thing is wanting them to destroy things, and the left-wing thing is to do nothing, inaction. In addition to being stupid and not very funny in general, the left is now known for causing millions of dollars in damages from riots and assorted actions of domestic terrorism when they don't get their way, they've been doing something constantly, it's just stupid an ineffective. Further, the obvious classic target for accusations of doing nothing is the slow ass conservatives who don't like change, not the radical progressives who want change at all costs. So the comic is also totally delusional!

I guess that makes sense at the end of the day. If comedy is a hyperbolic representation of relatable reality, which makes it funny, surely a hyperbolic representation of unrelatable non-reality would miss the mark.

As well as centrists for "being in the middle of these stances." (Rather than centrists seeing most radicals in either direction as hyperbolic bedwetters.)

Basically, Jennie's having a crashout at just about the entire political spectrum right now.

It's sad just how far liberals have fallen in their TDS. I kind of get it, Jen married a hispanic dude and she's probably hearing all those stories about Mexicans getting scooped up even if they are citizens, but she should not be this deluded by social media when at 45 she should be fully aware that the News is trying to frighten you into buying shit. Get off the goddamn phone and spend some time with your kids.

What does science say about men cutting off their dicks and injecting hormones? What does science say about average IQ by race? How is teaching "if you are white you are an oppressor just by existing?" education?
The I Love Science crowd is very selective of the tenets of their religion that they practice.

I'm not even sure of the politics of this. Because the "Democratic Party" seems to be all for destroying education, science, and democracy. After all, a tiny minority should be able to tell us that biological sex doesn't even exist, the vast majority should be completely ignored, and education should be turned into teaching children about fisting and castration.

"Science" - as in, the institutions which control the access to funding, publication, education, and promotion for would-be scientists - has and will say whatever the prople in charge of these institutions want them to say on these subjects. And with a few honorable exceptions, individual scientists have and will prove that they prefer a comfortable bed to Truth.

I hate this one and the other one that's similar, I believe its drawn with no lines, strange color palette, and has bizarre looking female creatures that the artist obviously wants to fuck.

I finally found who I was thinking of, Shane Frost.

Just posting for posterity's sake.

I looked up the name out of curiosity and got an art tumblr, a furaffinity, and two news articles about a Shane Frost being brought on on sex crimes against children and thought "yeah, sounds about right" but fortunately it seems as if the news articles were about a different Shane Frost. It just goes to show... uh... nothing at all, I still wouldn't rule it out with these types of artists.

The problem is that fake science literally just doesn't work. Stalin could force "science" to say Lysenkoism was a great idea and totally worked, but reality would still disagree.

 

[The Real Slim Shady]

That comic screams forwardsfromgrandma so bad. That's technically true but doing the science is performing research using scientific methods and demanding hard proof, not forwarding memes saying how 5G makes the frogs gay on facebook.

Fake science doesn't work in agriculture, chemistry, physics, etc., where knowing more things about the subject matter directly increases your ability to manipulate it. But in the social sciences, the incentives between making public true facts about the subject and achieving, uh, "engineering results" are, shall we say, misaligned.

But in the social sciences

I hear "social sciences" and I don't even hear the word "science" in that shit because those aren't even sciences.

Anyone who's taken a social science or psychology class knows they have a big chip on their shoulder and the first class is usually abut proving "we're totally not a pseudoscience".

 

[DocAwe]

But it is a science, the science of manipulating people into believing you need to pay them $200/hr to sit there and listen to you cry.

If it’s not based in math it’s not a science.

Economics is almost all math but it isn't a science, either. It's every bit pseudoscientific as critical race theory or women's studies. If you can't run an actual controlled study, it's not a science, it's just new-age woo "backed" by cherrypicked statistics that just magically happen to "confirm" your "model".
